Paris Hilton has been described as a 'Coachella Queen' after footage of her bodyguard being forced to chase her through the festival was shared online.
I can't say I know what it's like to have a bodyguard shadow your every move, but I imagine every now and again you must be overcome with the childish desire to try and run away, especially in the context of a typically fun and freeing event such as a music festival.
Obviously, though, that's not ideal for the bodyguard, as it just makes their job more difficult. This scenario was depicted perfectly by Hilton's bodyguard at Coachella this month, while the star gleefully floated from place to place around the festival ground in California.

Footage of the bodyguard was shared by TikTok user Meghan, from Toronto, who posted the clip at the weekend with the caption: "The way Paris Hilton's bodyguard has to chase her in the desert heat as she skips away."
Hilton looked reminiscent of a bird or butterfly fluttering from place to place as she held up her sheer skirt and frolicked through the crowd, spinning and dancing with other festival-goers before apparently deciding to really make a run for it.
Though the bodyguard initially kept a slow but close pace next to Hilton, he was left no choice but to run after her when she started to put greater distance between them and ran into the crowd.
The video has been met with delight from fans, with Meghan's post having so far been seen by more than six million people as well as being shared elsewhere across the internet.
When Hilton responded to the clip with the comment "#Sliving", Meghan replied: "COACHELLA QUEEN we love you."
Other commenters have also expressed their adoration, with one saying they were 'loving' the energy of Hilton and her bodyguard, while another joked: "This is how my friends are chasing their toddlers once they learn to walk lmao."
Another TikTok user commented: "my inner child at music festivals running away from adult responsibilities."
Hilton took to Instagram to share more insights into her time at Coachella, showing off the numerous outfits she wore to the festival including the floaty white ensemble captured in the video.
Alongside a picture of her posing in front of a ferris wheel at the event, she wrote: "Desert Goddess. living my Ferris Wheel fantasy. #Sliving #Coachella."
Though her bodyguard might not be able to say the same, at least Hilton enjoyed the festival!
